To have a fine lawn, says the
American Agriculturist, the grass
should be sufficiently vigorous TO re-
quire moving at least once week. To
NOW often and leave the clippings. is
better than to let grass get so large that
1t must be raked up and removed.

lie that he will remain in Millheim
thirty days longer. During his pro-
longed stay he will be pleased to have

How about ministers of the gospel
dealing out wine to communicants on
Sunday ? The clause in the new high
license bill prohibiting all persons from
giving away wine on Sunday does not
exclude them. provided you take the
section literally. The wording is evil
IDENTIFY defective in that case.
A petition to the Board of Pardons
interceding for Geo. w. Rianhart, of
the Williamsport Grit, now in Jail in
Bellefonte, is being circulated all over
the county and state for signers. We
doubt not the least that the document
will receive the signatures of great
majority Of citizens, as it should.
The sermons preached by w. L.
Amman, of this place, last Sunday, are
highly spoken of by all who heard them.
Mr.. Auman seems To he q close student
and with his natural oratoricai talents
he promises to become a first-class
preacher, of whom this town may have
reason to be proud. This was his first
effort in public and and he stood the
ordeal bravely.
Last weeks Centre Hall Reporter
devotes nearly column to the history
of the brass bands that sprung into ex-
istence in Centre county within the
last half century. Among the list is
mentioned the Millheim band and that
organizations age is given at - years.
Not quite correct, brother KuriZ. 1t
was started in 1874 and is consequently
only Is years old.
The band festival on Saturday and
Monday last was literally patronized,
notwithstanding t h unfayo b G
weather. The gross receipts amounted
to over Sl20 and the boys will clear a.
bout 500. The band returns their
heartiest thanks to the public 10 gener-
al for a generous patronage and to the
ladies in particular for the fine cakes
which they furnished for the festival.
We never saw such busy clerks as
were seen last Monday in d. s. Kauff-
man & Co.'S store on Main street. A
perfect jam, and all seemed in good hu-
NOR. Why should it be otherwise
Everybody knows that firm who sells
at bottom figures and gives the very
best for the money will grow in popu-
larity, hence the continued large trade
at Kauffman;s store.
A LONG WALK. Lucean Roush,
o. Madisonburg. who is a student at
the T. Sc II. College, at Lancaster came
home on visit to his parents last Sat-
urday. The remarkable part of his ar
rival is that he made the whole distance
on foot, being accompanied by Mr.. Alb
ner Dechant, fellow student at the
same college. They report very pleas
ant tramp, but are naturally little
tired and footsore.
